Word Of The Nerd - Cat Wyatt
Mar 22, 2019For the second-to-last issue, I'd say they're leading up to one heck of a goodbye. It's really perfect, when you look at it that way. Though obviously I'd prefer the series to stick around longer. Read Full Review

Mar 20, 2019West Coast Avengers (2018-) #9 is a little light on advancing the plot forward, and focuses more on the characters instead. Good story and great art. Read Full Review

Ramone and Johnny's origin is finally revealed and its actually pretty cool. This is probably the best issue since 6 and I'm really sad that this issue is ending. Like really really sad. Like sadder then I was when Mockingbird was canceled. Sadder than I was when Hickman left Marvel. Ok not that sad but awesome, excellent issue

Ha ha ... Ok at first I was piss about all the Ramone origin story. Mainly when I see Dora Milaje. But it was good. Cover - Not the better cover there is. And not in link to the story. 0.5/2 Story - I love the interaction in this team. I will miss them. 2.5/3 Arts - Not perfect. A lack of background. But that do the job. And man I want the "Ready for the reboot" Tee shirt ! 2.5/3 Feeling : One to go before the end Saddly. 2/2 +1 Because it was so good. Thank you Ms.Thompson.

Some funny moments. I liked that Clint was outed when the real Wonder Man appeared on live TV; it's the kind of ridiculous bad luck scenario he would find himself in. I also enjoyed the expressions of Gwen, Quentin and Ramone when they found out about the vampires. That being said, this issue still struggled with the same stuff this whole series has struggled with. There is no depth to any of these characters whatsoever. None of them are growing (except maybe Quentin the tiniest bit), and there's no chemistry at all between any of them, even between Kate and Johnny who are supposed to be a couple. And I literally could not care less about Ramone... her whole "I'm a black woman surfer champ who runs her own small business so I'm basically a more
